DESCRIPTION: This application, in response to RFA-CA-09-032, Community Networks Program (U54), proposes to continue our vibrant, comprehensive, and sustainable program to reduce disparities in breast, prostate, lung, and colorectal cancers that adversely affect older, underserved, African American adults in southeast Michigan. Under CNP I, we have mobilized with extraordinary community partners to implement an integrated system of community-based participatory education, training, and research activities. Our regional CNP II Center will include four large urban areas severely impacted by economic hardship: Detroit, Inkster, Southfield, and Pontiac. This tri-county area accounts for 71.3% of Michigan's African American population and 42% of the state's below poverty population. In SE Michigan, older African Americans have higher rates of poverty and comorbid medical diseases related to being underserved medically (5, 6). Our team of collaborating investigators and community partners will continue to build on our established partnerships. The effort will be led by the Karmanos Cancer Institute, the School of Medicine at Wayne State University, and the Josephine Ford Cancer Center of the Henry Ford Health System. Support for our CNP I and now CNP II is broadly based, demonstrated by the community leaders, researchers, clinicians and public officials with whom we have strong relationships and who have joined our Center Steering Committee and Community Advisory Group, and have written letters of support included in this application. We propose a community based participatory research (CBPR) approach to address three aims for reducing disparities: Aim 1. To continue to increase knowledge, access and use of beneficial biomedical and behavioral procedures to reduce disparities related to breast, prostate, colorectal and lung cancer, among older, underserved African American adults in southeast Michigan; Aim 2. To continue to develop and implement evidence-based intervention research to increase use of beneficial biomedical and behavioral procedures for cancer prevention, detection and treatment of older African Americans; and Aim 3. To recruit and train a critical mass of promising and successful new researchers in CBPR to reduce cancer health disparities.

描述：本申请是为了响应 RFA-CA-09-032 社区网络计划 (U54)，建议继续我们充满活力、全面和可持续的计划，以减少乳腺癌、前列腺癌、肺癌和结直肠癌的差异，这些癌症对密歇根州东南部的老年、服务不足的非裔美国成年人产生不利影响。在 CNP I 下，我们动员了杰出的社区合作伙伴实施基于社区的参与性教育、培训和研究活动的综合系统。我们的区域 CNP II 中心将包括四个受经济困难严重影响的大城市地区：底特律、英克斯特、绍斯菲尔德和庞蒂亚克。这个三县地区人口占密歇根州非洲裔美国人的 71.3%，占该州贫困人口的 42%。在密歇根州东南部，老年非裔美国人的贫困率和与医疗服务不足相关的共病率较高 (5, 6)。我们的合作研究人员和社区合作伙伴团队将继续巩固我们已建立的合作伙伴关系。这项工作将由卡马诺斯癌症研究所、韦恩州立大学医学院和亨利·福特卫生系统约瑟芬·福特癌症中心领导。对我们的 CNP I 和现在的 CNP II 的支持得到了广泛的支持，这一点得到了社区领袖、研究人员、临床医生和政府官员的支持，他们与我们有着密切的关系，他们加入了我们的中心指导委员会和社区咨询小组，并在本申请中写了支持信。我们提出了一种基于社区的参与性研究 (CBPR) 方法，以实现减少差距的三个目标： 目标 1. 继续增加有益生物医学和行为程序的知识、获取和使用，以减少密歇根州东南部老年、服务不足的非洲裔美国成年人与乳腺癌、前列腺癌、结直肠癌和肺癌相关的差距；目标 2. 继续开展和实施循证干预研究，以更多地使用有益的生物医学和行为程序来预防、检测和治疗老年非裔美国人的癌症；目标 3. 在 CBPR 中招募和培训一批有前途且成功的新研究人员，以减少癌症健康差异。
